New for Six Flags Parks in 2017

The Six Flags announcement has finally been released, and if you read our article where we talked about what we thought was coming to Six Flags Parks in 2017, you’d see we got most of what was coming to Six Flags in 2017 right. Anyway, we decided instead of doing a singular post for each park, we would just include what all the Six Flags Parks are getting in 2017! Below you will find the official article for each park on what they’re receiving in 2016.

Six Flags Magic Mountain: Justice League: Battle for Metropolis

JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis — The Next Generation State-of-the-Art Video Game You Can Ride — Now Featuring Spectacular New Finale and Popular DC Super-Villain, HARLEY QUINN

Six Flags Magic Mountain — in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products on behalf of DC Entertainment — today announced the newest innovation in immersive thrills, JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis — Ride. Play. Triumph. The next generation of the award-winning Six Flags ride will now feature a spectacular new finale, new game targets and the introduction of one of DC’s hottest Super-Villains, HARLEY QUINN. This cutting-edge attraction brings riders into the DC Universe featuring interactive content in one of the first-ever virtual 360-degree loops on an attraction, and interactive 180-degree toroidal screens that allow riders to experience state-of-the-art gaming while riding in six-passenger pitch and roll motion-based vehicles synced to custom action-packed scenes featuring the most iconic DC characters.

Slated to open at the Valencia theme park spring 2017, riders will become members of the JUSTICE LEAGUE Reserve Team in a multi-sensory four minute game experience with wind, fire, fog and special effects as they battle alongside the iconic Super Heroes, BATMAN, SUPERMAN, WONDER WOMAN, THE FLASH, CYBORG and GREEN LANTERN to save the city of Metropolis from LEX LUTHOR, THE JOKER and his henchmen. Also wreaking havoc will be HARLEY QUINN, THE JOKER’S favorite sidekick.

Designed and built by Sally Corporation, the Jacksonville, Florida-based dark ride specialists, and Alterface Projects, the video interactive systems experts, the climactic interactive battle scenes between the Super Heroes and Super Villains include a multitude of special effects and thrilling ride experiences as guests shoot targets and score points against their friends and family while traveling on a high speed chase through the streets of Metropolis. Falling from a bridge, looping through GREEN LANTERN’S construct and battling the Lex Bots in an underground subway station are all part of the interactive content action.

“Six Flags Magic Mountain is thrilled to once again ‘up the ante’ in Southern California’s theme park mecca and introduce one of the most state-of-the-art, innovative motion-based attraction in the world – the next generation of Six Flags award-winning JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis,” said Bonnie Sherman Weber, Six Flags Magic Mountain park president. “There is nothing like this anywhere in the world where riders are actually playing an interactive game while riding an action-packed high-intensity attraction. Leveraging the greatest Super Hero brands of all time, BATMAN and SUPERMAN, JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis is like a video game come to life – an immersive, multi-sensory experience with the most sophisticated technology available that is sure to deliver an unprecedented experience to thrill seekers of all ages.”

A 23,624 square foot HALL OF JUSTICE to house the full-sensory thrill ride;

A 4D ride experience with wind, fire, mist, fog and special effects;

Life-like animatronic characters including HARLEY QUINN, CYBORG, THE JOKER and his Henchmen, and Lex Bots;

A dramatic fight as the JUSTICE LEAGUE Reserve Team travels through laughing gas and flames in 10 high-intensity scenes;

One of the first-ever virtual loops, giving riders the feeling of going head over heels;

High-definition 3D animation shown on the first-ever, 180-degree interactive toroidal screens that fully immerses riders into the city of Metropolis;

State-of-the-art Gaming elements that put the riders into the interactive content where they compete with friends and family;

6-passenger pitch and roll motion-based vehicles with multi-degrees-of-freedom to transport riders through all the exciting twists and turns without limitations, and

Two pre-show rooms featuring larger-than-life interactive characters.

Located in the newly-themed Metropolis area of the park, JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis — Ride. Play. Triumph. will be part of an entire area remodel of surrounding attractions, food and retail locations as well as added entertainment.

This is a perfect addition to Six Flags Magic Mountain, and I can’t wait till they release some more details about the new Metropolis area and any more additions that may or may not come in 2017.

Six Flags Discovery Kingdom: Wonder Woman: Lasso of Truth

VALLEJO, Calif. — September 1, 2016—Six Flags Discovery Kingdom, the Thrill Capital of Northern California, in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products on behalf of DC Entertainment, today announced its newest ride attraction, WONDER WOMAN Lasso of Truth, to open in Spring 2017.

“It is our intention to open new, innovative attractions every season,” said Don McCoy, park president. “Wonder Woman is an iconic Super Hero and this character and thrill ride will add greatly to our line-up of DC themed attractions.”

WONDER WOMAN Lasso of Truth is an oversized pendulum shaped ride that will send guests on a dizzying journey in this thrilling and extreme attraction. WONDER WOMAN, the most iconic female Super Hero, is the embodiment of justice, equality, and peace; she is the symbol of female empowerment, as she seeks to fight evil at every turn.

Some ride highlights include:

· 40 riders will propel at speeds of nearly 70 miles per hour;

· The ride swings back and forth while rotating counterclockwise; and

· As guests swing higher and higher, they will experience a feeling of weightlessness at 147 feet in the air.

WONDER WOMAN Lasso of Truth will be located near two of the park’s newest attractions, Superman Ultimate Flight and The Joker, which opened earlier this year.

Even though Six Flags Discovery Kingdom really already has one of these, it’s still a great addition to the park and the park made a great choice to put it next to Superman: Ultimate Flight. I don’t know about you, but I think it’s going to be awesome walking to the front entrance and see that monstrosity go over your head.

Six Flags Over Georgia: Justice League: Battle for Metropolis

AUSTELL, Ga. — Six Flags Over Georgia — in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products and DC Entertainment — announces the next generation of interactive thrills with the all-new 4D interactive thrill ride, JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis, coming in 2017. The amazing thrill ride was recently named by USA Today readers as one of the Top Ten New Amusement Park Attractions of the year and was most recently awarded the Brass Ring for “Best New Product in the World” by the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions.

“2017 will be an exciting year, as the park will be looking back at its 50 year history and debuting one of the world’s best innovative and interactive attractions, as the park looks toward the future,” said Six Flags Atlanta Properties Park President Dale Kaetzel. “The entire family can now join the JUSTICE LEAGUE Reserve Team and battle the iconic DC Super-Villains together.”

Engaging in a full-sensory journey on JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis, guests will tag alongside BATMAN™, SUPERMAN™, WONDER WOMAN, THE FLASH and GREEN LANTERN against Lex Luthor, The Joker and his henchmen. The interactive attraction features:

A 22,000 square foot HALL OF JUSTICE to house this full-sensory thrill ride;

A dramatic fight as the JUSTICE LEAGUE Reserve Team travels through laughing gas and flames in 10 high-intensity scenes;

One of the first-ever virtual loops, giving riders the feeling of going head over heels;

High definition 3D animation that fully immerses riders into the city of Metropolis;

All-new, Unreal 4 Gaming engine; and

6-passenger vehicles with multi-degrees-of-freedom to transport riders through all the exciting twists and turns without limitations.

Construction is already underway and JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis is scheduled to open in the spring of 2017.

This is an awesome fit for the park, and while they might not be getting a new version like Six Flags Magic Mountain is getting it’s still gonna attract a ton of guests, and it’s going to be an instant hit for sure.

Six Flags Great America: The Joker 4D Free Fly Coaster

Six Flags Great America, the Thrill Capital of the Midwest, and Warner Bros Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment, announce plans for its 15thand most maniacal roller coaster to date, the all-new free-fly coaster, THE JOKER. This insanely twisted chaos coaster will be a massive new centerpiece in the Yankee Harbor section of the park, next to BATMAN The Ride roller coaster.

“We are excited to continue our partnership with the DC brand as it continues to resonate well with our guests. THE JOKER is undeniably one of the greatest Super-Villains of all time,” said Hank Salemi, Six Flags Great America park president. “This free-fly coaster will perfectly capture the essence of the warped and unpredictable nature of THE JOKER. It will take our park to the next level of thrills.”

After being lifted straight up a 12-story, 90-degree hill, the free-fly coaster will wreak havoc as riders flip head-over-heels at least six times along the weightless journey. Thrill seekers will experience exhilarating leaps and dives along a horizontal plane with unexpected drops as they tumble from one level to the next. The wing seats amp up the pandemonium since riders will experience this wild adventure with no track above or below ─ just the sky, ground and plenty of sinister thrills.

4-D wing vehicles that seat up to 8 per vehicle with a total of 5 vehicles;

Face-off seats that allow riders to face each other as they tumble head over heels;

A 120-foot-tall, 90-degree hill that is ascended by an elevator-style, chain link lift; and

Two beyond 90-degree “raven” drops giving the sensation of free-falling.

THE JOKER is expected to unleash total mayhem beginning in the spring of 2017, and join the ranks of all a long line of legendary roller coasters at Six Flags Great America.

Six Flags Great America is also announcing the start of 2017 Season Pass sales with its special Flash Sale through Labor Day weekend featuring the best deal of the year – savings up to 70% off on 2017 Passes! September 1 through September 5, guests will receive a free upgrade to a Gold Season Pass with every Pass purchased. Gold Season Passes include admission to both Six Flags Great America and Hurricane Harbor, and any other Six Flags theme park, as well as free parking and special admission for friends. 2017 Season Passes provide unlimited visits to Fright Fest® at Six Flags Great America in 2016 and all of 2017. Passholders may also purchase a Premium Season Dining Pass, which includes a lunch, dinner, and snack during every park visit, plus they will receive a 2017 All Season Sport Bottle for unlimited drink refills. Premium Season Dining Passes may be used at any Six Flags theme park.

This is going to be an awesome addition to Six Flags Great America, as these coasters have gotten really good reviews, and I know I wouldn’t mind one if they added one at Six Flags Magic Mountain sometime in the future.

Six Flags America: Wonder Woman: Lasso of Truth

Six Flags America, in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products on behalf of DC Entertainment, announced today a new addition to its already stellar lineup of thrilling rides and attractions. WONDER WOMAN Lasso of Truth, a 242-feet tall, sky-high swing ride and the tallest new attraction at the Nation’s Capital of Thrills will open in 2017.

Based on the world’s most iconic female Super Hero, WONDER WOMAN Lasso of Truth is an extreme swing ride that spins guests in a 98-foot circle at speeds of 40 miles per hour atop a 24-story tower. With a capacity of thirty-two riders, guests sit two across in open-air swings as they climb to the top of the tower while spinning round and round, offering a breathtaking view while soaring high above the beautiful Maryland and D.C. landscape.

“We are thrilled to announce a new experience that will take our guests to new heights at Six Flags America,” said Rick Howarth, park president. “At 242 feet tall, WONDER WOMAN Lasso of Truth will be the tallest structure at Six Flags America and the first to feature the most famous heroine of all time.”

WONDER WOMAN Lasso of Truth will join SUPERMAN Ride of Steel, Batwing and JOKER’s Jinx in offering thrilling experiences based on the world famous DC Super Heroes and Super-Villains. The colossal tower will be visible from every location in the park and will become a new iconic symbol of thrilling fun for guests of all ages.

The best part (or at least one of the best parts) about Six Flags America receiving Wonder Woman: Lasso of Truth is now we know Six Flags are still adding Sky Screamers! Which means more parks (Like SFMM, example) could receive one!

Six Flags New England: The Joker 4D Free Fly Coaster

Innovative New Ride Offers Epic Thrills

AGAWAM, Mass — September 1, 2016 — Six Flags New England, the Coaster Capital of New England in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products on behalf of DC Entertainment today announced plans to add its 13th coaster to the park, THE JOKER 4D Free Fly Coaster. This unique coaster experience will feature theming based on the iconic Super-Villain THE JOKER and be located in the park’s South End.

After being lifted straight up a 120-foot hill, this 4D wing coaster challenges riders to “face their fears” as they flip head-over-heels from four to eight times along the weightless, tumbling journey. Along the way on this 4th dimension free-fly coaster, thrill seekers experience exhilarating coaster hills and unexpected drops along with an interactive ride experience, making it a different sensation each time guests ride.THE JOKER 4D Free Fly Coaster allows adrenaline seekers to soar outside the confines of the track for an all-new coaster riding experience.

“We are thrilled to launch our 13th coaster here at the Coaster Capital of New England. Not only does THE JOKER 4D Free Fly Coaster utilize the latest innovative technology, it is highly interactive and will deliver something new for every rider. This is a great complement to our existing ride offerings and should be quite a hit with thrill-seekers. The unpredictable tumbling will add a new element as riders travel along the plunging and swirling track,” said Park President John Winkler.

THE JOKER 4D Free Fly Coaster features a massive and twisting track frame, in which ride vehicles begin their journey by traveling up a 120-foot elevator-type lift before being released for their highly unusual sensory journey – including two beyond-vertical free falls, in addition to four to eight head-over-heels flips. THE JOKER4D Free Fly Coaster is one of the most exciting thrill rides in the park’s history.

The unique construction of THE JOKER 4D Free Fly Coaster features:

One-of-a-kind onboard magnetic technology featuring four to eight smooth head-over-heels free-fly flips providing guests the feeling of weightlessness as they soar outside the confines of a traditional track

A 4D wing coaster that seats up to eight and has riders “face their fears” by allowing them to physically face each other as they tumble head-over-heels

A 120-foot tall hill that is ascended by an elevator-style lift straight up

Two beyond 90-degree raven drops giving the sensation of free-falling

Five vehicles with eight passengers each

Six Flags New England is starting to become one of the best parks in the chain. In the past 2 years they got Wicked Cyclone (we also have a review for WC coming up pretty soon, so be on the lookout for that), A flat ride, a re-theme from Bizzaro to Superman: The Ride & added VR to said ride, and now this year it looks like they’re going to be getting another great addition.

Six Flags St. Louis: Spinsanity

Six Flags St. Louis, the Coaster Capital of Missouri, will send guests reeling with the addition of the new Spinsanity in 2017. This intense thrill ride will give guests a rush of excitement with its dual rocking, spinning motion.

Spinsanity brings a different thrill to the park as the massive disc spins first one direction and then another while spinning from side to side. Forty guests sit on motorcycle-style seats facing outward as the disc flies along the 51-foot high half-pipe track all while whirling around at 14 revolutions per minute. The innovative attraction is the first-of-its-kind at the park.

“We continue to give our guests more and more unique thrills at Six Flags St. Louis” said Pete Carmichael, park president. “The multi-directional movement of the ride combined with the innovative seating design makes Spinsanity a must experience ride.”

Giant disc rotates clockwise and counter-clockwise while arcing side to side;

Half-pipe track structure stands 5-story’s tall; and

Rotates at 14 revolutions per minute

Riders must be a minimum of 48” tall to experience this innovative new thrill ride which will be located across from Tsunami Soaker in the Chouteau’s Market section of the park. Spinsanity is set to open spring 2017.

Looks like it’ll be a little bit of an off year for Six Flags St. Louis, which isn’t necessarily a bad thing, as this gives them the chance to fix the park up a little bit, which is always nice.

Six Flags Great Adventure: Justice League: Battle for Metropolis

Six Flags Great Adventure, in partnership with Warner Bros. Consumer Products and DC Entertainment, announces the addition of JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis to its world-class lineup of thrill rides in 2017. This multi-sensory, interactive dark ride received global recognition as the Best New Product by the International Association of Amusement Parks and Attractions, was named one of the Top Ten Amusement Park Attractions of the Year by USA Today readers and named Best New Attraction by Theme Park Insider.

“This ride is a game-changer and without question one of the most innovative, interactive and exciting attractions we have ever undertaken,” said Six Flags Great Adventure President Neal Thurman. “The world-class game play and cutting-edge technology will have guests fully engaged in non-stop action.”

In a high-stakes clash between good and evil, guests will become members of the Justice League Reserve team and engage in a full-sensory journey to save the city of Metropolis as they battle alongside Batman, Superman, Wonder Woman, Green Lantern, The Flash, Supergirl and Cyborg against Super Villains Lex Luthor and The Joker.

JUSTICE LEAGUE: Battle for Metropolis is expected to debut in the late spring of 2017.

This is going to be an awesome year for Six Flags Great Adventure and all the parks receiving this. Six Flags has really got something going with these dark rides.

The Great Escape: Bonzai Pipelines

Splashwater Kingdom to Expand with New Body Slides

LAKE GEORGE, NY — September 1, 2016 — The Great Escape’s popular outdoor water park, Splashwater Kingdom, goes Bigger, Better and Wetter in 2017! The Great Escape today announced plans to add Bonzai Pipelines, a pair of dueling water slides, to its 2017 lineup. The attraction will boast the park’s first body speed slides delivering unpredictable twists and turns and huge water park fun.

“Bonzai Pipelines will deliver an exhilarating water ride experience combined with a little friendly competition,” said Eric Gilbert, Six Flags Great Escape Resort president. “This multi-slide attraction will be a great enhancement to the water park and provide another awesome way to cool off on hot summer days. Gilbert added, “From our iconic thrill rides to our two children’s areas and free water park, no other theme park in the area offers this level of entertainment for the entire family and we are excited to continue enhancing our resort in 2017.”

Perched 30 feet in the air, guests will race through nearly 300 feet of banking twists and turns uniquely designed to provide an adrenaline-charged body slide experience. Bonzai Pipelines will feature two brightly colored twisting slides, becoming the 13th attraction in Splashwater Kingdom. The slides will complement the popular Alpine Freefalls in lower Splashwater Kingdom, offering thrill seekers the ultimate water park adventure.

More information about Bonzai Pipelines will be released during a hard hat tour of the attraction’s construction site in the spring of 2017.

This is another off year (surprise, surprise) for The Great Escape. While I would’ve liked to see a new coaster, at this park, it’s just not very likely. But nonetheless, Bonzai Pipelines looks to be a pretty fun waterslide.

Six Flags Fiesta Texas: Thunder Rapids Water Coaster

SAN ANTONIO, Texas —September 1, 2016 — Get ready to ride the power of a storm! In celebration of Six Flags Fiesta Texas’ 25th Anniversary in 2017, The Thrill Capital of South Texas today announced another innovative and thrilling first—America’s first rocket blast water coaster—Thunder Rapids. This state-of-the-art water attraction features a custom-designed inline raft and utilizes new water jet propulsion technology for lightning-fast uphill speeds and adrenaline-pumping drops. This thrilling water coaster will be positioned in White Water Bay, Fiesta Texas’ FREE water park (included with admission).

“This ride is unlike any water coaster in Texas or the U.S.,” said Park President Neal Thurman. “Over the last few years, we’ve debuted a number of ’world’s first’ coasters, solidifying our position as the premier destination for thrills in South Texas. Thunder Rapids is the perfect complement to the other offerings in our huge water park—combining the attributes of a roller coaster and water slide in one amazing attraction.”

Thunder Rapids features:

Five gravity-defying uphill blasts;

Four spiraling flying saucer turns;

One breathtaking enclosed dive turn;

A specially designed moving loading station;

A huge ride-up lift; and

An incredible 942-ft. long and 3-story-tall structure.

The ride also features an advanced loading system that allows guests to quickly and easily board their water ride vehicle at ground level from a moving station. Guests then ride up the lift hill to the top of the slide – eliminating the need to carry tubes.

Also on tap for 2017, a colorful, new Mardi Gras Festival, featuring eight authentic parade floats artfully created by one of the world-renowned New Orleans float designers, Kern Studios. This delightfully visual event will be presented twice daily every operating day along park streets from March 24 through April 30. To enhance the party atmosphere, Mardi Gras themed food, merchandise and park décor will be prominent throughout the park during this festive timeframe. As a tribute to the seasonal events at Fiesta Texas, several floats will feature a salute to the seasons, including Fright Fest® and Holiday in the Park®.

Thunder Rapids looks like its going to be an instant hit, and I can’t wait to see how it turns out (especially since this is the only real “new” attraction they’re adding at all the Six Flags Parks this year)!

Six Flags Over Texas: The Joker 4D Free Fly Coaster

Most Insane Coaster in the History of Six Flags Over Texas

ARLINGTON, Texas ─ September 1, 2016 ─ Six Flags Over Texas, the Thrill Capital of Texas, and Warner Bros. Consumer Products, on behalf of DC Entertainment, announces the opening of its 13th and most maniacal roller coaster to date, an all-new free-fly coaster called, The Joker. Now home to the most roller coasters in the Southwest, Six Flags Over Texas is proud to welcome this wicked and chaotic thrill ride to reign supreme as the most dynamic coaster in the GOTHAM CITY section of the park.

“We are excited to continue our partnership with the DC brand because it resonates well with our guests, plus The Joker is undeniably one of the greatest Super-Villains of all time” said Steve Martindale, Six Flags Over Texas park president. “The unpredictability and gravity-defying somersaults on this award-winning, spinning vertical coaster is the perfect addition to our already impressive coaster line-up.”

After being lifted straight up a 12-story, 90-degree hill, the freestyle-coaster will wreak havoc as riders flip head-over-heels at least six times along the weightless journey. Thrill seekers will experience exhilarating leaps and dives along a horizontal plane, along with unexpected drops as they tumble from one level to the next. The wing seats amp up the pandemonium since riders will experience all of this chaos with no track above or below─ just the sky, ground and plenty of sinister thrills.

4-D wing vehicles that seat up to 8 per vehicle with a total of 5 vehicles;

Face-off seats that allow riders to face each other as they tumble head-over-heels;

A 120-foot-tall, 90-degree hill that is ascended by an elevator-style, chain link lift; and

Two beyond 90-degree “raven” drops giving the sensation of free-falling.

The Joker is expected to wreak total mayhem beginning in the spring of 2017, and reign supreme over the Super-Villainous roller coasters in the GOTHAM CITY section at Six Flags Over Texas.

Six Flags Over Texas is also announcing the start of 2017 Season Pass sales with its special Flash Sale through Labor Day weekend featuring the best deal of the year— savings up to 70% off on a 2017 Passes! September 1 through 5, guests will receive a free upgrade to a Gold Combo Season Pass with ever Pass purchased. Gold Combo Season Passes include admission to Six Flags Over Texas and Hurricane Harbor-Arlington, and any other Six Flags theme park, as well as free parking and special admission offers for friends. 2017 Season Passes provide unlimited visits for the rest of the 2016 season (including park admission to Fright Fest® and Holiday in the Park®) plus all of 2017. Passholders may also purchase a Premium Season Dining Pass, which includes a lunch, dinner, and snack during every park visit, plus they will receive a 2017 All Season Sport Bottle for unlimited drink refills. Premium Season Dining Passes may be used at any Six Flags theme park.

Now… this is the only one I have a little bit of a problem with. Six Flags Fiesta Texas has the same exact ride, it’s just a different theme and it’s just like 200 miles south of the park, it just doesn’t make sense to have another one in the same state. Nevertheless, it’s still a great addition to the park.

La Ronde: Titan

Thrill-seekers Will Soar High Above the Park

Montreal — September 1, 2016 — La Ronde, Quebec’s leading destination for thrills and family entertainment, will add Titan, a new ride of gigantic proportion to its outstanding roster of roller coasters and other thrill rides and attractions. Titan will send riders on a swinging, dizzying adventure atop a giant swaying pendulum. Inspired by the legend of the Titans, those divine beings of the Greek Mythology synonymous with total domination, Titan will propel riders into a spinning tour over the park, sending them higher and higher in the air until they experience a feeling of weightlessness.

Among Titan’s highlights:

• Seating for 40 riders;

• Speeds of more than 112 km/h; and

• Towering nearly 45 metres in the air.

“We are very excited with the addition of Titan to La Ronde’s lineup of rides and attractions. This new thrill ride contributes to a wider offering for families and thrill-seekers in 2017,” said Phil Liggett, President of La Ronde.

It’s not all about coasters. Flat rides are great fun, too. Even the lower parks like La Ronde are getting some love this year, which is awesome!
